"5 Weeks In..."

...and we have what appears to be a straight foot!!!

5 weeks into casting treatment and Domenik's foot is visibly straighter!! The physio can get it into "neutral" position but not much further than that. One more week of casting and then into "boots and bar" of a night and orthotics to try and keep the foot as straight and flexible as possible.. Only problem with orthotics is they could be 6-8 weeks away as there is no technician at the moment working in the hospitals to make them!! Augh!! Frustration!!!!

Here the cast has just come off his foot - you can see bandage marks from being "wrapped up" under the cast and despite the room being super warm he still has little goosebumps on his leg LOL
